The attorney generals job or a seat on the Supreme Court wasnt officially on the menu last night as Gov. Deval Patrick had dinner at the White House with President Obama.

Or so Patrick says.

In a different time and place and under different circumstances, Id like to work in the administration, but thats not this time, Patrick said yesterday while at the ground-breaking for the new $244 million rebuild of the Fore River Bridge on the Quincy-Weymouth line.

Patrick is Barack’s “mini-me.” His legal career in the Clinton Administration focused on absurd community-organizing type initiatives for prison inmates. Another genius who would steer our futures, who needed multiple cracks at passing the bar exam. He got it on the third try.

A number of BO’s 2008 campaign slogans and phrasing were first developed for Patrick’s campaigns.

(Cynical about the political process. Who, me?)

A cousin in Massachusetts told me she was ridiculed after the elections because of her support for Romney and Brown. When she asked her co-workers who else they selected, knowing they lacked general wisdom, none could name a single person other than to say “I picked all the people with D's next to their names.” What a lovely mentality.

Unfortunately here in MA most of those D’s on the ballot are running unopposed.
Not that it matters, a ham sandwich could win office as long as that D was next to it’s name.
I typically have to turn in a 3/4 blank ballot every election.
